When is Arsenal vs Brentford?

The Bee's first ever visit to the Emirates Stadium will take place on Wednesday 26 September and the tie will kick-off at 7.45pm.

Brentford reached this stage by beating Southend United and Cheltenham Town.

This will be the first competitive meeting between the teams since the 1946/47 season, when both sides were in the top flight. Arsenal won 1-0 at Griffin Park in May 1947 in Brentford's final top tier game to date.

The Bees took on Arsenal five times at their old Highbury ground, winning one and losing one.
